Profile Information

I'm 62, originally from the U.K.. but have lived most of my
life in the Great Lakes region of Ontario, Canada. I'm a retired
construction worker and married to my first wife of 42 years,
have 3 kids (grown) and 4 grandkids (still growing). I started
writing stuff (poetry and short stories) just for fun when I
joined a couple of seniors' forums about 5 years ago. I decided
to join Booksie also, just for the enjoyment of it and am by no
means under any delusions that my writings are worthy of being
published or anything like that. In fact, the wife thinks they're
mostly just "stupid" (and she's right, I guess), but I have
received positive feedback from time to time from my fellow old
folks in the forums. Perhaps they were just being kind. Old folks
can be like that. Well, some of them anyway. There are some
cranky ones out there too. Meanwhile, I thought I'd expand my
horizons, give this place a try and see what the reaction (if
any) is like from people who are more serious about writing. I
plan to read some of your stuff too but meanwhile, If
anyone here cares to read and comment on mine, by all means be
brutally honest. I have no ego to bruise. Like I said, I'm just
here for fun.
